“On November 15, 2014, Shahid took one of his friends a 19-year-old mentally challenged boy to Mohammad’s residence.
While Mohammed and Shahid made the teenager perform oral sex on them, they invited one of their online friends from Hyderabad to view the act live using a webcam and video chat software installed on their computer,” said a police official from Worli police station.
During interrogation, the duo revealed that this friend of theirs said he had recorded the webcast and often threatened to upload it on YouTube and various social networking sites. They said he never asked for any money. Cops are now investigating the man’s role in the crime.
“Both the men will be produced in the court on Thursday. They have been booked under Section 377 (unnatural sex) of the IPC and relevant sections of the Information Technology Act, 2000,” said an official from Worli police station.
